Tussock Views by Tiny Away
Summary:
Welcome to the high country at Tussock Views. Our getaway is tucked away on Bauchops Hill Station, just an hour’s drive from the port city of Timaru. Soak in whiffs of fresh country air on the edge of the Mackenzie Basin as the friendly bleating of sheep and mooing of cows accompany you.
With a vast landscape, scenery, and farm animals by your side, you can be sure this countryside stay will capture your restless soul as you unwind in peace. #Holidayhomes #TinyhomeNewZealand
The Space:
Tussock Views by Tiny Away is a rustic, homey countryside set in a paddock that overlooks the valley and rolling hills. Tour the farm, meet the animals, and get to know James Mackenzie's history and the farm's legacy. Nearby nature-forward attractions and cozy eateries include Lake Tekapo, Tekapo Springs, Mt Dobson, Kohan Restaurant, and Fairlie Bakehouse.
It's a cozy 139-square-foot tiny home and pet-friendly accommodation with easy access to water, split air conditioning, a kitchenette, cooking equipment, and excellent bathroom facilities. These amenities include an eco-friendly cassette toilet with a removable waste holding tank, hand basin, and shower (gas-heated for hot showers).
IMPORTANT NOTE: If you're booking for a group, we also have three holiday homes, "Avalanche Creek Cabin, Mackenzie Pass Retreat, and Airstrip Stays," available with just 24 hours' notice.
Guest Access:
Guests will have access to the tiny home and the farm depending on the time of year and farming operations. We provide a farm map with hazards and no go zones, indicating where walking tracks are detailed.

The neighborhood is a farming community, with close towns such as Burkes Pass, and outdoor activities friendly for people looking for a good old NZ countryside day out, such as hot pools, ski fields, and delicious pies. Experience uninterrupted stargazing available on clear nights.
Explore nearby gems like Three Creeks Antique Shop, ski Mt Dobson or Roundhill, soak in Tekapo Springs, or catch golden hour at Lake Tekapo. For hikers, tracks like Opihi Gorge, Cowans Hill, and Kakahu offer easy access to South Canterbury’s rugged charm.
